My ex-boss' wife shared this recipe with me over ten years ago and I have been making it since especially for company. I love making recipes that can be made ahead and just popped into the oven when you are ready to entertain. I like to serve with penne pasta and salad. This is a very different type of casserole and be prepared to give out the recipe. Yum!
